Jenn-air cooktop has a clicking noise even though the stove is turned off.

Hello, Thank You for using FixYa. I will be helping you today.All four ignitors will spark even if only one is turned on.
Thank You and please rate my answer if it was helpful..

You might need to turn off the stove entirely. If there is even one function slightly on, the red light may not turn off. Try unplugging the stove if you can't figure out why its not off still.

Gas stove? LP? It is probably the electric spark ignitor. Many times when you clean the stove top water from the sponge gets below. The water droplets (align mysteriously) make the connection between the wires, and the stove thinks it's supposed to be igniting. When the water evaporates, the switch will work fine again & the clicking should only occur when igniting & then backed off.

This happened to me once before.

You must replace those controls. Cleaning or loosening them up would be temporary at best and the next time they stick it could be in the open position. Safety first...Eric

your ignition button is sticking down after you press it to light the burners, give it a few taps and clean underneath the button.
